There is a solution. One state for everyone. Palestine.
So long as there is a settler-colonial ethno-state occupying the land - there won't be peace, because peace is antithetical to the process of colonizing Palestine.
Mate, hate to break it to you - but sovcits have as legitimate a claim to the term 'sovereignty' as the US does to unsanctioned acts of war on foreign soil.
They're committing a mask-off genocide after 75 years of ethnic cleansing - all the while bombing and assassinating foreign citizens on foreign, sovereign soil.
Arguable - Israel requires manufacturing from all over the world. Yes, US money is huge in this equation but they're not the only people with agency to stop a fundamentalist ethno state commit genocide.
I had a friend once who said fascists just needed to "get it out of their system" when we were talking about the Boogaloo Boys a few days before the Jan6 insurrection. We're both queer - a week or so before we were talking about how mutual trans friends of ours were being bashed in our city and that was an explicitly bad thing - I had to realize they might have only cared because they knew them personally.
I was honestly stun-locked by the whole conversation and all the little implications it made.
Never felt safe around them after that.
When former partners came out saying they were an abuser, I knew they were right.
Yeah, I'm kind of shocked how dissociated the comments this thread are from what they're talking about. People are dying, right now - people will die as a result of this, too.
We're talking about death, here. Needless, wasteful death. War is hell - not an economic stimulus package.
How you still have faith in a status quo that's actively fucking us all says so much. The absolute limit of your imagination is to graduate being abused and become the boot - which is sad as hell because no matter what you do you'll never be rich enough to escape this. You're too far behind, dude - you can't afford to pay your way out of what's coming. Accept it. You're disposable. They'll die laughing at you for selling your life away for table scraps.
Putting the boot into other poors isn't going to stop you from being who/where you are.
Of all of us, you're going to fall the hardest no matter how hard you run away - and all the supports you'll need to ease you through 'failing' at neoliberalism on a dying planet will have been cannibalised by upstanding, fanatically Thatcherite cunts like yourself.
When your time comes, and I say this earnestly, be sure to do the rest of us a favour and post your plot so we can organise a schedule for pissing on it. You'll be like the forgotten soldier for contemporary idiots.
That headline is art.
